Q15 / 110 · NTA Abhyas (NEET) 2020 · Physics · Units and Dimensions

Let x=a2b2c be the physical quantity. If the percentage error in the measurement of physical quantities a, b and c is 2, 3 and 4 percent respectively then percentage error in the measurement of x is

  • A
    7%
  • Correct answer
    B
    14%
  • C
    21%
  • D
    28%

Solution

Δx x =2 Δa a +2 Δb b + Δc c

Δx y =2×2+2×3+4

=4+6+4

Δx x =14%
 

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
